Which is the most innovative products of your A/W 22-23 collection?
For the next Autumn/Winter collection Thermore has designed the brand new ECODOWN® FIBERS GENIUS, defined with the metaphor of a Swiss Army knife, because similarly to it, it features free fibers with a broad spectrum of functions.
What characteristics make
ECODOWN® FIBER GENIUS innovative?
The new Thermore product represents another successful step taken by the company in the field of free-fiber padding for clothing, ranging from high-fashion to sportswear. In particular, Ecodown® Fiber Genius features high-tech free fibers, which are bonded and intertwined, creating a uniform, thermal and resistant layer. It is an extremely versatile product that can be used in multiple styles and designs in the apparel industry. In fact, Ecodown® Fiber Genius can be blown into channels or panels, or manually inserted, as well as being used for custom patterns.
In addition, another point of strength of Thermore's newest product is its incredible durability and ability to improve over time. In fact, the Ecodown® Fiber Genius thermal fabric prevents the formation of lumps, increasing its insulating power by more than 10% after the first two washes.
Is it a sustainable product?
The insulating fabric is 100% sustainable, made from post-consumer recycled plastic bottles, another point of strength that nods at green and environmental sustainability.

This calls for direct contact with the press and customers, and also, for instance, through Milano Unica.

As mentioned above, there are multiple applications and therefore the product is addressed to producers of menswear and womenswear and kidswear, but also manufacturers of sportswear, especially thermal activewear, and those specializing in the production of jackets and coats.
